MENAIBridge renewed interest in the Holland Arms Garden Centre League title race, when they slammed hosts Bethesda by 123 runs to achieve a 10-0 points bonus at the Parc Villa ground.

Making the most of their quota of overs, Menai Bridge amassed 240 for 9 and benefited from four sizeable contri -butions by Dan Bord at 63, captain Ash -ley Wood 40, Nathan Goodwright 30 and Howyn Roberts29.

Bethesda'sresponse crumbled for 117 all out, although one batsman staged a show of defiance, with Steve Jones on 58, as the visitors' bowlers played havoc, Howyn Roberts grabbing 4 for 34 and David Hughes 3 for 24.

Division One leaders Beaumaris, whose tenancy of the summit now looks precarious, lost again, at Anglesey Alu -minium by eight wickets and 9-1 points.

Gareth Thomas stroked 55 but clear -ly lacked support as Beaumaris were bowled out for 122, with Aluminium's Phil Westall and Richard Harris in charge of the proceedings, gaining returns of 4 for 25 and 3 for 30.

The Holyhead hosts were busi -nesslike in their reply of 123 for 2, and three batsmen delivered the win, Dave W oodruff hitting 43 not out, Phil West-all 36 and Raj Britto 31.
